My top 2 soundtracks are the only ones that are really set in stone, but I'll try to make a full top 10. I'm not including Smash Bros games since they get the majority of their music from other games (even if their versions are sometimes better than the originals).

1. Tales of Symphonia - Has the battle music to end all battle music
2. Persona 5 - Needs no introduction
3. Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal - Easily the best 8-bit soundtrack out there
4. Ocarina of Time - Probably the Zelda soundtrack that has stuck with me the most, even if it isn't my favorite Zelda game
5. Metal Gear Solid: Revengeance - Just fits the game itself to perfection
6. World of Warcraft - Probably the greatest atmospheric soundtrack I can think of.
7. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Excellent and very distinct
8. Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald - Another great Pokémon soundtrack
9. Portal 2 - Like Portal 1 the end credit song sticks out the most, but the rest of the soundtrack is really great too
10. Persona 3: FES - Not as coherent as Persona 5, but lots of great tracks

Some of the aforementioned ToS battle music:
